Ontario County sheriff's deputies set up roadblocks over the weekend and may even prepare a dive team to search Honeoye Lake for Pamela J. Edwards.

The 56-year-old Conesus woman went missing from her mother's home on Hamilton Point off East Lake Road in Honeoye on Aug. 17, a day after she was released from a hospital after attempting suicide. She left the residence sometime during the early morning, leaving a note that she was going for a walk, but did not return.

Sheriff's deputies were stopping traffic near Hamilton Point on Saturday in the hopes that the same people might be travelling as the week before and may have seen something that could assist the investigators, according to Lt. William Gallagher.

Unfortunately, nothing was turned up, and the search broadens.

"We're looking at the possibility of a Honeoye Lake dive to find any evidence that may help in the location of Ms. Edwards," said Sheriff Philip Povero.

Edwards is a white woman with brown hair and eyes. She has a medium build, 5'4" and weighs about 160 pounds. She has no noticeable scars, marks or tattoos. She may be wearing eyeglasses. Any tips should be called in to (585) 394-4560.
